Over the past years, England has produced some of best players like Rooney, Daniel Sturridge and the new sensation of Tottenham striker, Harry Kane, has 25 goals from last season, and will lead England’s hopes of goals.
Russia is probably the lowest ranked team in their group and expecting goals from them would be not doing justice with them. In the history of the tournament, on five occasions they have participated as the Soviet Union and one time as CIS national football team. Their best came in 1960 when they were crowned as the champions of Europe after defeating Yugoslavia 2-1.
